@Chocolatebuttons You've received over 100 comments, and I need to close this thread. Before I do, let me give you a bit of advice. Being preoccupied with labels is only going to cause you more confusion. There are not always clear cut lines, or definitions, in people -- they don't usually fit into neat and tight categories. A "malignant narcissist" for example, has narcissistic (NPD) traits combined with Anti-Social Personality Disorder (ASPD) traits -- which includes possible psycho/sociopathic, and sadistic traits. These definitions can overlap in some individuals -- it's not always clear-cut. A person may have other issues or disorders (like BPD) as well. The label is not the important thing, as most narcissists are never officially diagnosed. The main thing you should be concerned about, is how you've been treated by this person. Since you're posting here, and from what you've told us -- it certainly sounds like you're the victim of narcissistic abuse. Whether or not he qualifies as a sociopath, is not important -- as an (NPD) narcissist does not have empathy, meaning he doesn't care about another person's feelings. Also an NPD is emotionally unavailable, as he cannot connect on an emotional level, or have genuine loving relationships. It may seem as if he is genuine during the love-bombing phase, and for brief periods in between the abusive times. But it is not sincere -- he's facade, a fake image based on illusion, and not reality. If you're experiencing abusive treatment of any kind, and disrespect -- then this is a relationship you need to end; as you don't deserve that.....
